Glasgow man handed five-year ban over Wrexham v Millwall disturbance | OneFootball

A Glasgow man has been banned from football matches after a pre-match disturbance in Wrexham in which a 52-year-old man was assaulted. Andrew Currie, 29, of Brownsdale Road, Rutherglen, had travelled from Scotland for the game.

Millwall beat Wrexham 2-0, an own goal by defender Max Cleworth set them on their way before Josh Coburn added a second.

The incident happened near the Ironworks pub ahead of the Championship fixture on Saturday, February 7. Attending officers chased Currie on foot and arrested him nearby.

He was identified as a suspect and had fled the scene with a group of men. According to NorthWalesLive, he later pleaded guilty to assault at Wrexham Magistrates' Court on Thursday, March 12.

The court imposed a football banning order that prohibits him from attending matches for five years.
